Alexander Huber, born in 1968 in Trostberg, Upper Bavaria, is a German mountaineer, climber, mountain guide and physicist. Together with his brother Thomas, he formed the climbing partnership known as the “Huberbuam,” which became widely known through the feature film “Am Limit.” His notable achievements include demanding free-climbing routes on Yosemite’s big walls, the route “Pan Aroma,” the first ascent of the west face of Latok II, and a free-solo ascent of the Direttissima on the Cima Grande di Lavaredo. In 2008, the brothers climbed Ulvetanna in Antarctica and made the first ascent of Holtanna’s west face.
